# Alertmanager

The Debian package of the alertmanager does not include a web application.

Please, use the `amtool` command-line application to obtain equivalent functionality.

Alternatively, you can deploy your own files to be served by the embedded web server, by placing them in `/usr/share/prometheus/alertmanager/ui/`, or by using the `--web.ui-path` option to point to a different path. Note that the web server will only serve files in the `lib` and `app` sub-directories, plus the fixed `/index.html`, `/script.js`, and `/favicon.ico` locations.

You can still use the HTTP API, and the special handlers:

- /metrics
- /-/reload
- /-/healthy
- /-/ready
